A/N: Sort of a sequel to The Icing Extruder aand Tones of Balls, Tones of Action. This one's more angsty at places. Didn't mean for it to happen but it just did ;)
The clip in this story is real.
I own nothing but this story.
Comments are love.
-Britin, Early Monday Evening-
"Well, hello there, stranger," Daphne greets her old time friend when he logs on to their belated weekly Skype session.
"Things have been quite hectic around here in the past few days, Daph," Justin shrugs.
"Is everything okay?" Daphne sounds genuinely concerned. Since she's living with her husband and their five months old son in California she can't quite keep track with Justin, HIS hubby Brian and their two year old son Declan- which she helped bring in to the world- so their weekly Skype updates became somewhat of a tradition. "I've been trying to contact you the entire weekend but you were not available," she says.
"Thanks for your concern, Daph. The fact is Dec has been under the weather in the past few days but he's okay now. What's worst is that I've been shoveling ten feet of fucking snow from the drive way earlier today just so I could get to my car to drive Dec to my mom's so she can babysit for a couple of hours while I get some work done at my studio," Justin explains.
"What -may I ask- are YOU giggling about?" he frowns at her while she can't help a smirk. "Oh, right, let me guess, you're enjoying the lovely warm weather in sunny California while we're practically buried in fucking snow here in West Virginia. Ha Ha very funny. But let me remind you it's only temporary. You'll be back here in six months, remember?" Justin snorts back.
"Hmmm... someone is pissed today," Daphne answers.
"YOU would be too if YOUR hubby would run off to work first thing Monday morning leaving you with a fucking snow shovel and a cranky two year old…" Justin pouts.
"Let me remind you I'm a stay-at-home mom of a five month old and I deal with those kinda things ALL the time…" Daphne almost sounds insulted.
"I didn't mean it that way, Daph and… not that I'm complaining but…" Justin stops in mid sentence, his eyes roam around the specious living room to make sure his son is still preoccupied with his new toy cars. "It's just that we don't get too much… S.E.X lately…" he lowers his voice, almost mouthing the last word to his friend.
"Oh, THAT…" Daphne nods."I though that's one area you and Brian never had problems with…" she points out without as much as a flinch.
Justin takes out a deep breath and looks back at his old time friend. Even when she's half way across the country and has a family of her own now Justin knows he can always trust her with everything.
"It wasn't as difficult when Dec was a baby, actually. We could always snag a few moments here and there because we didn't get much sleep in the first few months anyway…" Justin's face suddenly lights up.
”Tell me about it…" It's now Daphne's turn to sulk. "But what amazes me is how you were both able to keep it up even then. SO… what seems to be the problem now?" she then asks, a hint of yet another smirk brighten up her face.
"NOW Dec is not a baby anymore, he's a toddler. He NEEDS more from us, we can't just… DO it, you know," Justin explains "NOT as frequently and on a spur of a moment impulse –like we used to- anyway…"
"You two…" Dahpna shakes her head as if she's trying to figure out how things work out in the Kinney-Taylor household.
"But anyway… I think there's more," Justin sighs and presses his back to the sofa, nestling his laptop closer while keeping his eyes intently on Declan who's now moved to the other side of the living room where he's comfortably nestled in his mini couch in front of the huge TV screen watching his favorite animated movie.
"MORE?" Daphne inquires,"Prey tell, I have like twenty minutes before Josh wakes up from his nap," she explains.
"I'm not sure you're gonne like what I'm about to say," Justin's gloomy expression makes Daphne raise her eyebrow in concern "What is it?" she asks softly.
"It's… Brian. He's.. I mean I think he's…" Justin's voice trail off.
"Oh, you mean he's back to..?" Daphne puts her hand on her mouth.
"God NO! NOT that," Justin shrugs. "HE'S totally fine in THAT department. In fact I think he's doing too well. I think he's t… t… tricking again," Justin mouths the last word.
"OH now Justin… don't go there!" Daphne says, obviously relieved. "I think you're just overreacting. Brian would NEVER go back there. Not now and not ever," she adds.
"How can you tell?" Justin sounds doubtful.
"BECAUSE the man is madly in love with you. I mean other than my wedding YOURS was the most beautiful ceremony I've ever seen," she points our "Plus you have a beautiful boy together. He's the most precious little boy if I should say so myself," she smiles sweetly, proud to be an integral part of this little boy's life.
"Many people get married, have kids and then… drift apart, you know… I mean look at Lindsay and Mel ,they wasted so much time fighting and drifting apart when Gus was a toddler and way before JR was born," he pauses "NOT to mention MY own dad, " his lips suddenly quiver.
"Come on Justin, you're JUST stressing out. Maybe it's that post holiday season blues that makes you a bit weary. I know, I went through it myself. But anyway- I can't see Brian tricking again or being unfaithful to you…" she tries to calm her old friend down. "He's crazy about your ass," she smiles.
"THANKS for trying to cheer me up Daph, but… the truth is I wish you were right. FUCK!" he suddenly hisses, thankful his that his son can't hear him since he's so fascinated with the movie he's watching, " Brian has been acting weird in the past couple of weeks. He's been sneaking out of the house, making weird phone calls, staying out late at work and even driving down there on the weekends which is something he's rarely done since Dec was born. I dunno… maybe he is going through his own post holiday crisis…but since Brian Kinney never does anything half way I'm afraid he might have taken it too far this time around…" Justin's voice trails off again, making it impossible for his old friend to comfort him properly especially since her baby boy has just woken up and is demanding his mommy.
"I'd love to stay and chat, Justin…" she says. " I'm not signing off, I'll be right back, okay? We’ll figure this out, I promise," she says before she disappears from the screen.
Justin smiles and nods at his friend. He rubs his eyes, puts his laptop aside and tends to his son who's still watching the TV. "YOU like that movie so much, don't you buddy?" the blond asks softly, pulling his legs under him on the rug while moving closer to his son. As luck would have it just as his son nods at him with a beaming smile and mumbles "Yes, daddy," a few bars of Let It Go rings through the huge TV screen.
Justin can feel the tears at the back of his throat but he simply can't let his emotions get the better of him. He smiles at his son and decides now would be a good time to start dinner. At this time of day Brian usually calls him to see how his day went and let him know he'll be leaving the office soon which usually leads to a playful banter between them for a while longer. Today is no such day.
On his way to the kitchen to get some groceries out Justin notices Daphne has signed off the Skype session after all. He leaves her a message saying they'll keep in touch and carries on with the rest of this evening routine which includes serving Declan his dinner, giving him his bath, making sure he'll brash his teeth with his favorite banana tooth brush and then finally putting him to bed in his favorite super hero PJ's and another chapter of Justin' never ending saga 'Declan and his Magic Dragon' which IS yet to be published as Justin's latest children's comic book, as soon as he finishes writing the plot and adding the hand made drawings in his studio.
At this point at night Justin feels as if HIS super powers had left his body. He crawls into his and Brian's specious warm bed but finds it difficult to let go. A few weeks ago they were spending some daddy and daddy time in here after they had a coupl-y playful Skype chat with Daphne ranting and rambling about their kids' Christmas presents and now he's lying here alone in the dark, his dick painfully hard, his heart beating fast, with no fucking clue where Brian is and no idea how to figure things out.
When he finally manages to shut his eyes briefly Brian's side of the bed sinks in and Justin can at least breath normally again.
"Where the fuck have you been?" he throws the impending question at his husband, pulling away when Brian's warn naked body presses into his.
"Hey… what's wrong, Sunshine?" Brian seems struck by his husband's response. "Why the cold shoulder all of a sudden, literally?" he asks.
"God, have you been drinking?" Justin pulls away even further.
"What the fuck, Justin, what's got into you?" Brian sits upright in bed and switches on the lamp that's on his bedside table.
"Not YOU, obviously," Justin fires back.
"Well, I'm here now and I'm willing AND able to get into you," Brian replies in a gravely voice.
"I'm tired, it's been a long day. Dec missed you at bed time by the way," he adds in a low voice rolling to his side of the bed with his back to his husband.
"And I missed HIM AND his daddy," Brian huffs, rolling over to spoon Justin from behind.
However angry and hurt Justin might be he could NEVER resist a warm gentle doze of Brian's spooning. He lets out a deep breath and feels himself relaxing as he's body is totally envelope by Brian's."So what is it? Where were you tonight and in the past few days?" he asks quietly after a short pause.
"At work," Brian answers calmly, inhaling Justin's sweet familiar scent.
"Oh, please,don't give me the 'work' bullshit. It's the oldest trick in the book. Opps, I said trick, " Justin's voice is tense and ragged with anger again.
"I told you million times before, I'm NOT tricking and I will not do that ever again. It creeps me the fuck out. And I'm NOT your dad. I will NOT use work as an excuse to fuck around with some new young and improved model," Brian says, pulling his lips inward.
"Working on a new project?" Justin huffs.
"As a matter of fact I have. I I can't tell you about it. Not just yet. BUT once I'll show it to you you'll love it, I can promise you that, " Brian groans, reaching out to pull his husband closer .
"Why didn't you call me all day?" Justin presses, still holding back.
"I told you, I can't talk much about it, but you'll see," Brian answers , reaching out again to grab a strand of blond hair but the younger man is already fast asleep before Brian can do much to satisfy himself or his husband.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
-The Next Morning-
"Here it is, come have a look, Sunshine," Brian calls, sitting at the dinning table having his coffee and peering intently into his laptop. "There, see?"
"What the….??? It's one of those fucking 'Office Bromance ads for dudes', Brian. There are million of them online these days. Now I've gotta go wake Dec up or he'll sleep 'till noon, " Justin huffs.
"Yeah but if you wait a minute you'll see where this is going," Brian grabs Justin wrist and pulls him close, trying to appease the grumpy blond.
"Okay…" Justin shrugs absently but then stops to gaze at Brian's laptop screen with his arms firmly crossed on his chest.
"Brian… it's…" he can't help himself when the ad ends. "A fucking Taco Bell commercial," he chuckles "BUT it was so ridiculously romantic," a distinctive Sunshine smile now lights up his face. "I should have known better…" he says and then stops half way.
"Than to freak the hell out on me last night?" Brian finishes his lover's sentence. "I couldn't tell you much about it because when the company hired ME and Kinnetic to work on the whole thing they wanted it to look like a clip that leaked online or went viral or whatever the fuck but I couldn't wait to share it with you… since YOU inspired me to go with the concept of two guys meeting at the work place, hitting it off and then running away to have the greatest secret gay wedding ever, " Brian smiles into Justin's mouth.
"SECOND greatest secret gay wedding ever," Justin smiles back, snaking his arms around Brian's neck.
"Uhh?" Brian lifts an eyebrow, his tongue already drilling deep into Justin's mouth.
"I said SECOND, since OURS was the first," Justin explains under his breath .
"Obviously," Brian moans into Justin's mouth, capping his fabulous heart shaped butt cheeks.
"Ever the romantic," Justin smirks.
"I'll take it as a compliment," Brian snorts as they both lock their lips.
